The 3rd SOLLAB Doctoral-Colloquium was held at the PROMES Laboratory,
which is located at the Solar Furnace in Odeillo, part of the village
of Font-Romeu, which is famous for its hours of sun and is reputed to
be the sunniest ski resort in France.
Font-Romeu is at the heart of the broad Cerdan plateau which has been a
Regional Natural Park since 2004. It is close to Barcelona, Toulouse,
Perpignan, and Andorra and offers a stunning view over the surrounding
mountain ranges with peaks at over 2,900 meters high.

The SOLLAB Doctoral Colloquium is dedicated to presentations
and discussions by doctoral students and provides a comprehensive forum
for the latest scientific and technological advances in the fields of
solar thermal electricity generation and solar chemical conversion.
